GoFIGR's Skills Matrix is a workforce capability tool that maps every employee's skills against their assessed proficiency levels.

This enables HR leaders and managers to design targeted learning programmes, make smarter internal mobility decisions, and align workforce capabilities with business strategy.

Most skills tools give you a binary yes/no on whether an employee has a skill. Skills Matrix captures proficiency levels, so you know not just who has a skill, but how well they can apply it. This makes a significant difference for workforce planning: a team with three people at beginner level is a very different situation from a team with one expert and two gaps to fill.
GoFIGR uses a structured proficiency scale applied consistently across roles and skill categories. Employees self-assess against clear criteria, which managers can review and endorse. Self-assessments also feed into the user’s own action plan.
Because Skills Matrix shows proficiency gaps, not just skill presence or absence, L&D programmes can be targeted precisely. Rather than sending an entire team to a generic training course, HR can identify who needs foundational development versus who needs advanced progression. This makes training budgets significantly more effective and development plans more personally relevant.
Skills Matrix makes it possible to identify employees who are close to the proficiency threshold for a new role or project - not just those who already fully qualify. Managers posting internal opportunities can see a ranked view of candidates by skills fit and proficiency level, including people who may not have applied themselves but are genuinely strong candidates.
